摘要
Members of the trefoil factor (TFF) family are mucin-associated polypeptides that are expressed along the entire length of the gastrointestinal tract. TFFs have been proposed to play a role in mucosal defence through both protective and reparative mechanisms. The potential relationship between TFFs and mucins in non-gut glycoprotein-secreting epithelia has not been fully explored. In the present study we identified TFF2 and TFF3 mRNA and peptide in rat lymphoid tissues, demonstrated that TFF peptide expression in rat spleen increased 1.5- to 3-fold following experimental induction of the immune response, and showed that hTFF2 and hTFF3 (1-5 mg/ml) stimulated migration of human monocytes, Our data suggest that TFFs may in part be involved in the repair of injury through the modulation of the inflammatory response.
